Workflow Clinic Surgical Scheduling through OR Scheduling https://www.naham.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1697550 Fri, 12 Jun 2026 12:19:43 GMT Mon, 13 Jun 2022 15:53:05 GMT Copyright © 2022 National Association of Healthcare Access Management Workflow Clinic Surgical Scheduling through OR Scheduling https://www.naham.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1697550 https://www.naham.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1697550 Good Morning, Colleagues!

My health system is in the pre-work stage of our EPIC Implementation.  I would love the opportunity to speak with and/or receive a workflow document outlining the Surgical Scheduling/Booking process in EPIC.

1.  Clinic determines patient needs surgery?

2.  How is the surgical authorization for Physician and Hospital obtained - does the case go to worklist; or is authorization obtained prior any order or request for

      surgical services?

2.  How are surgical cases booked in EPIC?

3.  How is the OR scheduling process - room, date and time of surgical procedure managed?

4.  How is pre-admission testing factored into the surgical booking workflow?

 

Some of these questions maybe a moot point - but as noted just beginning our journey.

Many thanks to my fellow EPIC Users!  I am phoning friends :)

Cathy
